Expert Reviews


What reviewers liked

This compact model has an 8 cup capacity bowl and comes with reversible shredding and slicing discs.
This machine is a work horse. It will slice and dice up vegetables like nobody’s business. It is easy-to-use, easy-to-clean, and will satisfy your performance expectations at this price level.

What reviewers didn't like

One downside is that the Elemental FP-8SV is a bit harder to clean than some other models because the center post does not come apart, but you still need to clean that part of the machine.
Some unlucky customers received units that were D.O.A. (dead on arrival).
